A SEQUEL!!!???

A SEQUEL!!!???

Big Sonic Fanfic Announcement!!!

@samthefrank and I have been sitting on this for a while, but we couldn't wait anymore!

Our fic Making Space is nearly done with just a few more chapters left to go. But that doesn't mean the story's over! Instead, we will be continuing into a sequel!!!

What will this sequel be about, you may ask? Good question!

Many of you have been guessing and hoping for a Knuckles-Centric story, and those who did were right on the money.

Plenty of angst and found family feels ahead, you guys.

For a peek at what's in store, check out a snippet below!

“So,” Tom began, “we wanted to talk to all of you about some things that are going to be happening around here.” He focused on Tails when he said, “do you remember when we ran into Judge Ramirez, about a month ago?” 

The fox kit nodded. “Sure, she was real nice. Intense, but nice.” He laughed lightly, then his eyes widened. “How come you’re- she was talking about a-a-what was the word?” He looked at Sonic.

The hedgehog smiled. “Adoption.”

“That’s the one! It means being officially part of the family, right?”

Knuckles looked up from gnawing on his crust. “We are a part of the family.”

“You are,” Maddie said, reaching out to squeeze his shoulder. “But, if we can, we’d like to make it so the whole world knows it.”

“If you can?” Tails echoed, ears dropping.

“Yeah, that’s what we wanted to talk about.” Tom slid down a step so he was at eye-level with the boy. “Because we’ve started the process, but it’s not a guaranteed thing.”

“But you did it once already! With Sonic.”

“And when we were at this stage with Sonic, we kept it a secret.” Tom stretched one leg out down the steps. “We didn’t want to get his hopes up, in case things didn’t go our way.”

“So why-?”

“Because Sonic got the mail today,” Maddie said, plucking wet wipes from a plastic pack and coming closer to start wiping down fingers and faces. “And he’s not the best at keeping secrets.”

“Hey! I could’ve been a secret agent in another life I’ll have you know,” Sonic insisted.

“Sure you could, baby.” 

“But then you just told us,” Tails said. 

“Oh. Forget I said that.”

“Ha!” Knuckles crowed. “You are a feeble secret keeper! Right Mother?” He looked up at Maddie, who was watching him almost sadly. “Mother?”

“It’s probably better this way,” Tom said, quickly. “Because things are a little more… sticky than they were with Sonic.”

The hedgehog’s ears pricked up. “What? Why?”

“Because the government that gets to make the final call is the same government that G.U.N. is a branch of,” Tom answered. “And they're chomping at the bit for a P.R. win.”

Sonic frowned. “After all that bullsh-” Maddie gave him a look and he corrected, “baloney they pulled back in Hawaii, you’d think this would be a golden opportunity for them! Make right with the kids they tased, right?”

“And you’re right, baby,” Maddie said, reaching out to brush his face where, just a few weeks ago, she could still feel the scabs from where the tasers had reached below fur onto skin. “You’re right. They can’t touch us over the kids they attacked. But… but that’s where we’re having a problem.”

“What! They- they want to taze us again just so the whole thing’s easier?” Sonic’s eyes slotted. “I don’t care what they’ll do, Mom. If they come near us again-”

“No, sweetheart, that’s not it. It’s-”

“It is me.”

The four others on the steps turned towards Knuckles, who was looking off towards nothing in particular, expression empty. “That is the problem.”

My favourite dads from different fandoms:

What better way to start your day than with a brand new chapter!!!

We're nearing the end folks! Things are wrapping up! But not to worry, the sequel is nearly finished on our side, and @samthefrank and I can't wait to bring it to you!

Enjoy and happy reading!!

It was around 3 AM on what was officially Sunday morning when his phone rang.

Sonic jumped, nearly falling off the little bench at Crazy Carl’s kitchenette table. They’d been sitting together quietly. Carl had shown Sonic a few of the letters from his time in Vietnam before going and answering his own phone calls from Wade with sorry, haven’t seen him.

And so when Sonic’s phone lit up, his mom’s name and picture on the screen, Sonic didn’t know what to do.

“What if they’re mad at me?” He curled his legs up. “I was a jerk to them before I left. And I was worse to Tails and Knuckles.”

“Probably are spittin’ mad at you,” Carl said with a shrug. “Ain’t everyday their baby runs out with a pack’a portal rings. Be surprised if they weren’t.”

“They probably hate me.”

Carl laughed. “If that’s what you wanna think.”

Sonic gnawed at his lip, looking down. “Do I… answer it?”

“Up to you. Like I said, ain’t my job.”

This fanfic is one of my absolute favorites! I’ve been wanting to make fanart for it for a while now but I’ve been busy with my job/ other projects. But I’m glad I finally had the time to make this. I really liked the interactions of Sonic and Carl and it’s now my head cannon that Sonic visits Carl every time he’s stressed.

Thank you @humanityinahandbag and @samthefrank for all of the love and work you put into your Sonic fanfics. Keep up the great work!

I have this strange belief that while Sonic and Knuckles are forthright with their feelings and actions, which lead to louder fights and squabbles between them.

But not Tails.

Tails is quieter. And therefore more dangerous.

If Sonic or Knuckles even tried to make fun of him, Tails wouldn't react at all.

No, this is a kid that would wait 3-5 business days and then unveil a tri-board titled "Why My Brothers are Butt Faced Losers" and pull out every single receipt he's got, whipping out flashcards like, "Reason 1: Because Knuckles broke Mom's favorite vase and blamed it on Ozzie and cried for an hour afterwards about being dishonorable. Reason 2: Because Sonic steals Dad's snacks when he's not home" just absolutely ticking off items watching his brothers shrink farther and farther down into their skin under the gaze of their now very knowledgable parents, Tails just standing there like; 😈
